get led lights. then you don't have to mess with them every year. they're more expensive, but they last longer. plus you can buy them on a spool so they don't tangle up for the next year. oh, and you test the lights before you put them on the tree. lol

craziness

1, tons of shoppers wherever you go

2. 5 hour energy as gifts commercial. who would do that?

funky fun

1. all the houses with lights. there's one house that totally decorates their house and yard. you can see their house from miles away. i'd hate to have their bill though. lol

Monkeybee, Remember when the Cabbage Kid dolls were so popular that the stores were running out of them at Christmas? It was total chaos. You may be too young to even know what a Cabbage Kid doll is.

You may go through life hearing a 1000 NO's but don't give up because your YES is out there waiting for you.- (Something my father told me.)

Kitty honey, at Halloween I plugged in all the lights to make sure that they worked. Then I climbed up the ladder over and over again putting them on my house. When I plugged them in, one string didnt work. I was pissed. lol. So checking them early doesnt always work.

I love the movie How The Grinch Stole Christmas. The dog in the movie is so adorable.

When I had my step kids and my daughter, I would put them all to bed and then put on a red outfit and I had a red cloak with a hood. I put a bunch of empty boxes in a garbage bag and tide a white t-shirt around my chin. I would walk back and forth in front of their bed room window ringing a bell and saying "ho ho ho". The crazy things you will do for your kids.

Calling family at the big Christmas party and EVERYONE asking when are you going to be home for Christmas again?

Trying to get presents for everyone bought and shipped home without spending a bloody fortune.

Christmas music being played WAAAAY too early and on all your favorite stations.

Car trouble that costs waaay too much to pay for and takes all your money.

Management of the apartment complex we live in giving us five days to move all our stuff out and store it somehow so they can lay new carpet which the city is making them do, and spending too much money in the process.

Not being able to spend time with family during the holidays, especially my nieces and nephew.

Happiness.

Talking to family at the big Christmas party, especially family that is in the service and doesn't always get home for the holidays.

FINALLY having the truck fixed and not having to pay for the rental car which we had for almost three weeks.

Having great friends who are willing to help when you're in a bind.

A wonderful caring husband who loves me no matter what, even when I'm acting crazy and my bp is really bad.

Family who loves me and cares for me even when I haven't seen them in a long time.

Fantastic grandparents who will do anything for me, even though we're 14 hours apart. And that's without traffic. They give great advice too!!!

Great friends on this board who stand up for one another and are there for each other. Missed you Snowy!!!!

My friend Melly who was willing to hang out with me while she lived in Dallas, even when I was manic and driving everyone else crazy. Miss you dearly girl!!!

My sister in law Kirstin who was brave enough to let me spend a whole month with her and the family and really get to know the kids. I'm sooo proud of my niece Melanna who is leaving for boot camp in January. She's going to be a nurse in the Air Force. We love you girl!!!

Finally my uncle Charlie who taught me a lot in life and gave me my first job. I miss you a lot!!! Wish you were still here.

OMG!! My stores are always out of pumpkin too and I always make a dessert that needs one. I've started buying it earlier because I've learned! I love the grinch song and movie too. I just love watching Christmas movies period, especially funny ones!

Monkey - I learned my lesson a while ago and stock up during the summer months, but this year I forgot ... so instead of making pumpkin bread like I'm dying to, I have to wait and bide my time until I find some again ... lol!

At least those I can make!!! Unfortunetly I'm the only one who likes them. And boy are they fattening. Are there any Aldi's in your area guys??? They always have pumpkin and they are a lot cheaper than other grocery stores. Hope you all have a great Christmas!!!
